Jen, Claire has woken up hysterical at night a few times. But I dont think it was when she was teething though. She wees overnight - her nappy is usually pretty full and I dont change her nappy overnight as it wakes her up too much and then she thinks it is play time. Youre right about him possibly being restless because his daddy isnt there. Claire is the same when DH is away. I'm not sure, sorry.

Ali, I havent put up a Christmas tree because I think Claire will eat it. I have had to put all the presents up on top of a shelf because she loves crunching paper, lol. I think I saw the Fisher Price thing youre talking about at Big W, but it was a few months ago that I saw it. DH got Claire a Hi 5 video. She loves bopping to the music! We havent got her anything else yet, but will hopefully get around to it soon. There is a really cool toy store near us with lots of learning type toys which look like fun so I'll probably go there and empty my wallet onto the counter PMSL! How cute that she was trying to sing with you! Claire gives me a funny look when I sing. Probably because I sound awful!

I went to Mothers Group for the first time in ages yesterday. It was really nice to see the other mums. All the babies are growing up so beautifully. Claire is still so petite compared to the other babies though, and the most bald! I also took Claire to the ECHN yesterday. She is now 7kg, 69cm long and her head is 43cm. She wouldnt stay still the whole time but she did enjoy playing with the blocks at the clinic. someone elses toys are always better than your own toys! The nurse wants to refer us to another clinic to see a paediatrician about a few things with Claires skin, so she booked us in for that in January. DH told me not to bother going because I have the exact same skin thing (which I pointed out to the nurse and I have always been told it is not a problem) but the nurse still tells me to go.
